[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One more thing, just read the other AP extended with the family... they can't be that bad then or is she is sucker for punshiment?[/quote]

Sometimes it's just the devil you know.  Our last AP who extended with us also had a few good friends in her cohort who extended too, even though they were in less-than-ideal family situations.  But the APs wanted to spend another year in America, and wanted to stay in the same city with their friends.  Trying for an extension year with a new family seemed like too much of a gamble.  Also, the APs were very attached to the host children, even if the host parents did not always treat them well or fairly or within program rules.  As much as many posters on this board will complain about "entitled" APs, the trust is - a lot of APs are very hard workers, and are scared to complain even when they are being treated wrongly.  They value their opportunity to be here for a year or two, and don't want to risk not finding another match.[/quote]
